WIN THE WAR, BUT LOSE THE PEACEI'm still of the mind that the Liberal media slant is going to cost us the peace if we're not careful. They're documenting each individual soldier killed, and as much as I hate to see a single one of our military men either wounded or killed, the price of freedom is often measured in lives, and whether both the nation and its' soldiers have the guts and determination to make the necessary sacrifices, an unfortunate truism.
In the mid-east, each Muslim nations and its' people seem ready and willing to sacrifice their lives, in fact, even anxious to give their lives for the cause they believe in! They're proud to do so, and their families are proud of them when they make the ultimate sacrifice.
They've struck at us again and again, and for more than 15 years they've taken a toll in the lives of both American and our friendly nations. Here, many people shrug their shoulders and blame the U.S. for this, blame their own country, and refuse to acknowledge the fact that evil-doers do exist and that they must be exterminated, just as one would exterminate rodents.
Patriotism? Many schools today simply do not teach it. Many universities are against it. And many organizations are simply anti-American. As a result, the feeling of patriotism is steadily eroding in the hearts and minds of our children. We are not even a
melting pot any longer, because various nationalities are forming distinct and separate groups and there is no longer the emphasis, as there once was, on being
an American. If children are not taught from an early age to love and honor their country, its' founders, and its' heroes, we lose that sense of unity. I am apalled at some of the statements I've heard teachers make lately. They seem to think that teaching patriotism is making children warlike, and they simply do not believe in defending this country if it means that we must fight a war.
That's pretty sick thinking, if you ask me. Obviously they don't watch the history channel. Obviously they haven't studied the history of communism, or even paid attention to what has happened to the Cuban people just 90 miles off our shores.
I'm going to do a new page on my Website, and it will be called:
FIVE STAR RATS. It's going to list many friends of Castro, such as Danny Glover and Harry Belafonte. Watch for it, on
Howards Views.
